Good location near the harbour, and a short walk to a stunning beach. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the staff were all lovely and helpful.

Great location near the port and located in nice garden. Free breakfast was great and make a great banana pancake! Great value for money and loved the outside bathroom.

Staff were really friendly, the room was clean and they provided a towl and toilet roll (which is always a bonus).
We were always greeted with a smile.
Really close to the beach and places to eat.

It was right near the harbour so no need for a horse and cart. Also near lots of restaurants/bars. Wifi was good.

Fan-cooled rooms in Kombok Cottage are simply furnished with a desk, wardrobe and mosquito nets. Guests can relax on the terrace while enjoying garden views. Shower facilities are available in the private bathrooms.

Serving breakfast in room or at the cafe, the hotel also offers sightseeing arrangements for those who wish to explore the island. Snorkelling, fishing trips and airport transfers can be arranged at a charge.

At Basra Cafe, guests can sample a selection of Indonesian dishes.

Gili Air Island itself is reachable by a 2-hour fast boat ride from Bali’s Padang Bai Harbour, or a 15-minute fast boat ride from Lombok’s Bangsal Air Harbour, which can be reached by a 1.5-hour car ride from Lombok International Airport.

This property has been on Booking.com since Apr 22, 2013.

Only a customer who has booked through Booking.com and stayed at the property in question can write a review. This allows us to verify that our reviews come from real guests like you. Who better to tell others about the free breakfast, friendly staff, or their comfortable room than someone who’s stayed at the property?

We want you to share your story, with both the good and the not-so-good. All we ask is that you follow a few simple guidelines.

Tips for writing a great review

Give us details. People love to hear about the little things. Was the air conditioning working? Was there a chocolate on your pillow? We like long reviews, so you should try to write at least 50 words.

Be candid. Give us your honest opinion. We’ll never remove a review just because it’s negative. We promise.

Be relevant. The best reviews provide constructive information that helps other travelers make better choices. Stay on topic and avoid content that others might find offensive.

Sometimes we'll remove reviews if they include any of the following:

Objectionable material. This includes insulting or discriminatory remarks, swearing, or other offensive language.

Private information. To protect your (and others') privacy we do not display reviews that include email addresses or phone numbers.

Sensitive information. We don't display reviews that contain information with possible legal implications. This includes references to suspected illegal conduct or allusions to lost or stolen items. In such sensitive cases, please contact our Customer Service Team, who will be happy to help.

Irrelevant topics. This includes promotional content and politically sensitive subjects.

In some rare cases, neither the written review nor the review score can be displayed. This only happens if:

Key information is missing. A few review questions are mandatory. If these aren’t answered, we aren't able to calculate a fair review score, so we can't display the review.

You didn’t stay at the property. When necessary, we’ll confirm this information with both you and the property owner.

You made a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes. We won’t post yours. If you reviewed a different property from the one you booked, let us know. We can fix it so that your review shows with the right property.

The review is a fake. If there's any indication that a review is not authentic or is in any way fraudulent, it will be flagged during the moderation process.

The location was decent although I don't think a bad location is possible on such a small island.
We rented snorkels and fins from them and they were as good a price as the other guys on the street and good quality.
The small balcony porch section was nice.
The mosquito net was good (in theory, but we still managed to get bitten).

I'd say you get what you pay for, but we have had exceedingly better accommodation in and around Indonesia for a similar, if not cheaper, price (albeit not in Gili Air).
The room was pretty dirty with many spiders and ants and the impressive looking mosquito net ended up being quite useless, as bites still occurred during the night.
The bathroom was dirty.
The breakfast was bad; it tasted okay but the coffee cups and plates were dirty and we often found ourselves having an early lunch!
Outdoor porch light didn't work (room 4)

Location was good, breakfast was good. staff was friendly.

We had 3 people in one room with the 2 beds both on opposite sides of the room due to the position of the mosquito nets but sharing one ossolating fan. There needed to be two fans or an extention cord so the fan could be moved.We did ask due to it being so hot but was told one fan one room. We moved the single bed nearer to the larger one and went without the netting. luckily the mosquitoes weren't to bad.

Great location near the port and located in nice garden. Free breakfast was great and make a great banana pancake! Great value for money and loved the outside bathroom.

Shower was no more than a trickle so had to use toilet hose to wash really. Matress still had a plastic cover which made it hot to sleep in and also noisy every time you turned over. Fan room was hot as not great fan coverage because of height. Internet connection not the best.

Serenity as there are only a few cottages. It is just a stone throw away from the harbor, less than five minutes walk to the beach front and the village is just at the back. Nevertheless, the air was just so peaceful.

There was no one to clean the room during the entire stay.
Also, there was just too many mosquitoes that a repellent is a must. Fortunately, they have a mosquito net to save you from mosquitoes while sleeping.
